Q. Kacheguda railway station has declared the India's first Energy-Efficient 'A1 Category' Railway Station. It is situated in which city?
Answer: Hyderabad
Notes: Kacheguda railway station in Hyderabad has become the India's first Energy-Efficient 'A1 Category' Railway Station. It is operated by the South Central Railway (SCR) zone of Indian Railways. The station achieved the feat by replacing 1,312 conventional lights with Light-Emitting Diode (LED). It also replaced 370 ceiling fans with fans that run on Brushless DC Electrical motors, and installed 12 energy efficient inverter-type air conditioners. All these measures will save about 1.76 lakh units and Rs14.08 lakh per annum with reduction of the connected load by 46.18 kW for Railways. The station was built in 1916 during the reign of the last Nizam of Hyderabad, Mir Osman Ali Khan.
